<p>Seems about an average app.<br>
Eagle Scout pride lol. that’s a nice boost.
Grades/test scores seem decent. Not mindblowing, but within range.</p>

<p>Most likely deffered, but more likely accepted than rejected.
Id say… 70% or so acceptance or deferral</p>

<p>Thanks Ninjaboi. I can’t believe we only have ~18 hours to go!! I’m so nervous lol</p>

<p>My honest guess is accepted. I’d say you have about a 50% shot. If not, I think you’ll be deferred (and if you’re deferred, I really don’t know what your chances will be of getting in). </p>

<p>Best of luck! We’ll know your fate (and all of ours soon enough!).</p>
